Another week has come and gone, and it was mostly a lovely week-- weatherwise, anyway. Work was pretty crazy thanks to all the things going on around town (I mean, it's October. It's about the only month with reliably nice weather, so everyone is doing All The Things), but I think it will get a … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: October 22, 2022
Autumn Walk
I usually have dinner with friends on Wednesday nights, but they were busy so I'll see them next week. Since it was a beautiful night, I decided to go out to the park and take some photos while the light was good.
Sunday Sum-Up: October 16, 2022
Last week was a week. It was very much a week. I'm glad it was over. To make a long story short, it involved a lot of stress and me having to solve problems of other people's making, punctuated by a day of feeling like the bottom of a shoe for an entire evening the … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: October 16, 2022

Sunday Sum-Up: October 9, 2022
Just a quick update today. My friend L and I are heading out of town to an Autumn Festival at a little town on the river, about 90 miles away, so we're leaving in a little bit. It should be a good time, as the weather is forecast to be just about perfect, and the … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: October 9, 2022
September Summary, October Preview
September really showed off the fact that it's both in summer and in fall. It started out hot and dry, and then, almost overnight, the weather cooled off and became positively autumnal. The trees started turning colors and the nights have been crisp and cool but not yet freezing. So far, October has been wonderful, … Continue reading September Summary, October Preview
Walking Through the Woods
We don't have much in the way of woods around here, really. There is a stretch of wooded area just outside the city that serves as a park and watershed. It is lightly maintained, with volunteers who come through to make sure the trails are clear and cut up any trees that have fallen across … Continue reading Walking Through the Woods

Another week of "the best-laid plans" going awry. I made plans. Lots of plans. And... most of them didn't happen because things came up instead. Like a lengthier-than-expected car repair that unexpectedly left me at a shopping area that doesn't have much in the way of shopping (at least not shopping I'm interested in) for … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: October 2, 2022
Sunday Sum-Up: September 25, 2022
After one last summery blast (it reached 103°F on Tuesday), Fall weather has finally arrived! Wednesday morning brought a cold front, which gave us some lovely cool temperatures and much-needed rain. We had a couple of days of gloomy weather, which I loved. Cloudy days are some of my favorite days, especially when it involves … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: September 25, 2022
